TESTIMONIALS

What People Are Saying

"This show and JW's practice passages/course trial session helped me raise my official CARS score from a 121 to a 125! There is hope! Thanks Dr. Ryan Gray for this podcast."

"I listened to 3 episode and already I understand HOW TO read these passages. My accuracy on questions has increased but I need to work on my timing!! I am faithful this will come in time!! Thank you Jack Westin and MedEdMedia for all your free material! I really appreciate it! The QUALITY from you guys is unmatched. I thank God for you guys!! From CT with love/appreciation."

"Jack Westin is revolutionary - Before we discovered Jack, we spent a tremendous amount of time and energy struggling to get through a single MCAT CARS passage. Over time, we had built bad habits including going back to the passage for each question and failing to grasp the main idea. After speaking with Jack, we not only learned to break negative habits, but we began to build a positive mindset to our approach to MCAT CARS. Believe it or not, we began to put ourselves in the authors' shoes and genuinely began enjoying reading, what others may consider, extremely dull, boring passages. We would highly recommend listening to this podcast, and similar to us, you too will learn to enjoy doing passages just like we did! P.S. Jack, you are a blast!"
